The good life, as I conceive it, is a happy life. I do not mean that if you are good you will be happy – I mean that if you are happy you will be good. – Bertrand Russell

For some time, I’ve been wanting to start a blog to express my thoughts as well as ideas and experiments I have going. So here goes! I’m finally taking the step! Being a family on a tight budget, I’m always looking for ways to stretch a dollar, so one of the things I plan on doing on this site is to give tips that I’ve learned over the years on how to save money. I’m also interested in cooking and healthy eating…and not so healthy. Hey, everyone has their weaknesses! I’ll be sharing my discoveries and ideas along the way. Hope that you enjoy!
